the discriminant b^2 - 4ac when the equation is in the form of ax^2 +bx+c=0


13x^2-16x = x^2 -x


we need to get in it the standard form


subtract x^2 from each side


12x^2 -16x = -x


add x to each side


12x^2 -15x = 0


12x^2 -15x -0 =0


a=12 b=-15 c=0


b^2 -4ac


the discriminant = b^2


b^2 = (-15)2 = 225
